Ok, I'll now follow the web2py book, something I should have done to start with :-/ I'm trying to install web2py as a windows 7 service and used an options.py file as described in the book. But it fails to install, it says (in dutch: Error installing service: Access denied. (5))
web2py>web2py.exe -W install web2py Web Framework Created by Massimo Di Pierro, Copyright 2007-2011 Version 1.99.2 (2011-09-26 06:55:33) stable Database drivers available: SQLite3, pymysql Starting hardcron...
